It might be as simple as not having the VDPAU development
files/headers installed - these may be packaged as libvdpau-dev or
libvdpau-devel, depending on your distro.

When building MythTV from source, you need the development headers for
several libraries installed (package names usually end in -dev or
-devel) in addition to the libraries themselves (my apologies if this
is obvious).

Cheers,
Nick
